As I said, I struggled a bit whether to post this one, because so much of the indigenous knowledge is used mindlessly and commercially. Also, it's very contextual, and it is not fair to play around with it without understanding it.

But you will have heard bits and pieces of these Dine bizaad/Navaho/Navajo prayers anyway if you are interested in the US-American southwest at all -- "house of dawn", "it is finished in beauty" -- and let's face it, it's better to be familiar with the originals than third-hand versions.

Treat it with the same respect as you would your own tradition, or something dear to you.

With interlinear translations.
